normally a multi year lurker on the list, but this is my kind of thread.
I have a big Olympus collection and a big Mazda RX collection, but not an RX4.
not to worry neither collection is in the best of shape.
in my collecting I have found a small connection in the two companies.
I have a copy (my friend has the original) of a sales brochure of an Mazda R100 (or 1200?) from about 1970.
the interior picture of the dash has a black Pen FT in the glove box!

Maybe RX-8..
Zoom! Zoom!
Yup, you guessed right.  It's amazing the parallels between
Mazda and Olympus.
Call me a retrogrouch, though.  I still would like to have an
RX-7 convertable again.

Seems I recall AG-Schnozz had an RX-7 of one generation or another at one
time. I've seen the RX-8 on the road around here a couple times and its
quite a striking auto. Definitely not a convervatively-styled auto. Also saw
a Chrysler Crossfire (?) the other day... I think I like the MB version
better.

OM-'s of all sorts, and no OM-oney...

I've at least ridden in every permutation of round engine Mazda to make these shores, save for the latest iteration. My wife's got me beat on= that note. She's already had a joy ride in an '8'. Was mightily impressed.
Give me my '73 RX-2 four door sedan..  A stealth vehicle supreme.

OT, but I had both an RX-2 and an RX-4.
